Research direction
Start by reading the resolver configuration documented for /etc/resolv.conf, especially the domain and search options, and review gethostname behavior and the related issue #98. Check how the resolver currently handles short hostnames and determine the applicable Windows equivalent. Done means local short aliases resolve using the configured search/domain information, with the system hostname domain used when no explicit domain is set.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
We should support the domain and search options listed in /etc/resolv.conf (and possibly Windows' equivalent). Additionally, we should check the system hostname if it includes a domain part if the domain is not explicitly set.
This is useful in corporate and home networks where a short local alias is often used, i.e. intranet actually resolves to intranet.example.com.
